Title: Connected Travel Manager
Location: USA
Job Number: 00422473

As the Connected Travel Lead, your role is to build a practice focused on connected services for the travel industry, to learn, build and educate on new technologies, and to work with the Accenture Travel and Digital groups to take those products to market.

This role is half way between technical product management, technical architecture and software engineering. It requires someone with a passion for technology, who understands product management, who has the acumen to identify business drivers, and who has a demonstrated experience in the Travel industry.

This is an extraordinary opportunity to build a rewarding career – with excellent benefits – at Accenture. Working in highly collaborative teams for world-leading clients, we’ll nurture your talent in an inclusive culture that values diversity. While fast-tracking your career, you’ll have the flexibility to pursue your specialist passions. So, whatever your work and life goals, we’ll help you achieve them. Sooner.

To be successful, your profile likely shows:

A background in Engineering or Computer Science with an emphasis on systems or software engineering.

You can architect, code and/or stand up large systems.

Learning a new language, tool, or technique is an adventure and not a chore for you. As a matter of fact, you live to learn new things, and you always have a new idea to pursue.

You know how to productize your creations and articulate business value.

You can demonstrate prior experience in consulting or at least in delivering projects to clients, as well as maintaining successful business relationships.

You are also experienced in developing a team, a project, a timeline, and delivering results.

Outside of work, we imagine that you build things for fun; hardware or software. You share your creations on github or contribute to Open Source projects.

This role is part of the Internet of Things Engineering Team. The IoT Engineering Team is a global group focusing on the development and incubation of new IoT products, platforms and technologies. Our function is to provide expertise in the underlying technology enablement of the IoT, with a focus on architectures, prototyping, and integrations. We are part of the Accenture Emerging Technology group.
